"Your subject is here!"
" Yes!" Li Si quickly stepped out and responded respectfully.
As the Chief Historian of the Great Qin Dynasty, Li Si was an official in the Supreme Court.
He is in charge of the law of Qin Dynasty, equivalent to the censor.
"According to the laws of Qin, what crime should Lao Ai be punished for assassinating me?”
Ying Zheng looked down at Li Si and asked.
"According to the laws of Qin, it is a major crime of treason and should implicate the three clans!”
Li Si's body sank as he spoke with a trembling voice.
Only then did he realize.
Why was Lao Ai the only one who was executed by a thousand cuts a few days ago?
"What is the crime of conspiring against an accomplice?" Ying Zheng asked again.
"Press…According to the laws of Qin, the entire clan will be implicated."
Li Si's heart was filled with fear, and his voice was clearly trembling.
"Very good." "Cao Zhengchun!" Ying Zheng ordered.”
"Your subject is here!"
Cao Zhengchun stepped out of the crowd, his eyes flashing with cold killing intent.
"Bring all of Lao Ai's accomplices here.”
Ying Zheng's eyes were deep, and his tone was calm and indifferent as he said,""If you resist, I will allow you to act first and report later.”
"Yes!"
Cao Zhengchun said firmly and quickly left.
The unconcealed killing intent made everyone around him tremble in fear.
He knew that the king was doing this to pave the way for the East Chamber.
Even after the incident at the Qin royal palace, the East Chamber had entered the eyes of many people.
However, it had not been established for long, and its foundation was too weak.
In the Qin royal palace, he could still act without fear.
If they left the Qin palace, they would say that they would grant special permission to the imperial power and act first before reporting.
It was simply a joke.
However, if they succeeded today, the East Hall's position would be completely stabilized.
Seeing that Ying Zheng had used Lao Ai's henchmen as stepping stones, he had promoted the East Chamber.
No one dared to say no.
Even through Ying Zheng's words, everyone could vaguely guess his long-term plan.
When the East Chamber was first established, it caused a bloody storm in the Qin palace.
It was hard not to attract attention.
At the same time, his strength was recognized by everyone.
There were three thousand peak Houtian guards, three Xiantian leaders, and the leader was a grandmaster.
With such strength, the East Hall was pushed to the front.
Even without Lao Ai's incident, with Ying Zheng's domineering nature, who would dare to oppose him?
Besides, Ying Zheng did not say it directly.
He only asked the East Chamber to do things and establish his prestige by implicating Lao Ai's entire clan.
Therefore, everyone only dared to lower their heads and remained silent.
Previously, most of the information regarding the Qin royal palace had been kept secret.
He had some understanding of Ying Zheng's tyranny, but he wasn't clear about it.
But at this moment.
In front of all the civil and military officials of the Great Qin Empire, Ying Zheng's domineering methods were also displayed.
In the imperial court, everyone was frightened by Ying Zheng's coldness and tyranny.
..........
In the Qin palace.
The three thousand factory guards were already waiting for Cao Zhengchun's order.
After Cao Zhengchun received the permission from King Ying Zheng, he led three thousand factory guards straight to the various clans of Lao Ai's henchmen.
Among them, there were eunuchs, guards, and clans.
They might not have been directly involved in the rebellion.
However, it was undeniable that they were all closely related to Lao Ai.
It was not an exaggeration to say that they were Lao Ai's henchmen.
Ying Zheng wanted to take this opportunity to deal with them and intimidate the ministers of Great Qin.
Of course, they would not let them off easily.
"The East Chamber is in charge of business, and the idle people should retreat!"
"Those who obstruct us will be killed without mercy!”
Cao Zhengchun narrowed his eyes, his killing intent sweeping in all directions like a tidal wave.
The three thousand factory guards behind him also had cold eyes, their killing intent condensing into the sky.
Under the leadership of the three stall leaders, they swarmed in all directions.
Many of them were prepared for Lao Ai's downfall.
However, they had never thought that Ying Zheng would be so decisive and ruthless.
He didn't leave any leeway!
He didn't expect it either.
The East Chamber had been granted special permission by the imperial power to act first and report later.
"Bastard!"
"Who are you?"
"Do you know where this is?”
"If you want to arrest my master, call your officials above the chief justice here!”
A guest shouted angrily.
Cao Zhengchun did not care at all and directly thrust his saber horizontally.
The weapons were dazzling and carried a rumbling sound.
There was a muffled sound.
Blood splattered everywhere, and the heavy gate of the mansion also exploded.
If they didn't agree, they would be beheaded.
Cao Zhengchun's cruelty shocked everyone around him.
"Lao Ai has rebelled against his superiors, and his three clans will be executed.
The accomplices are guilty of the same crime, and the entire clan is implicated!"
"The imperial power grants special permission. Those who resist can be killed immediately!”
As soon as he finished speaking, hundreds of factory guards swarmed out.
Someone subconsciously wanted to stop him, but he was instantly beheaded.
The dazzling red blood frightened everyone who was still stubborn a second ago.
"You can't do this!"
"My master does have some dealings with Lao Ai, but they are just acquaintances!”
"Even if they are Lao Ai's accomplices, it's too inhumane to implicate the entire clan!”
Someone spoke up for justice.
Some people wanted to escape by relying on their martial arts.
But without exception, they were all killed by Cao Zhengchun and hundreds of factory guards.
Cao Zhengchun's cold voice echoed in the air.
"The imperial power grants special permission to act first and report later!"
"This is the East Chamber!"
"Those who resist will be killed immediately!"
"Kill them!"
As blood dyed the sky, the surroundings were deathly silent.
The remaining clansmen who were scared out of their wits were all stunned and surrendered.
Similar scenes were happening everywhere in Xianyang.
The name of the East Chamber also shook the entire Xianyang.
"What does the king want to do?"
"The imperial power is granted, and the East Chamber is the most powerful under the king?”
"There's no need for a trial.”
"What the chief justice dares not do, the East Military Department will do it.”
"How could the East Military Department kill those who the chief justice of the supreme court dared not kill?”
"Too overbearing! The East Chamber was clearly the sharp knife used by the king to wipe out all dissidents!”
"It's one thing to wipe out Lao Ai's henchmen, but isn't it a little too much to implicate the entire clan?”
"You deserve to die for treason and regicide; however, you should let the dean of the supreme court deal with it first.”
"Such tyranny and cruelty is indeed a little exaggerated.”
Ordinary people would never be able to see through Ying Zheng's true purpose.
They only thought that Ying Zheng was brutal and crazy.
This was to eliminate all dissidents regardless of the consequences and the price.
Just to secure his throne.
Ying Zheng had long expected these rumors.
But he did not regret his decision.
If he had to do it again, he would still choose to let East Chamber massacre Lao Ai's henchmen.
Extraordinary times required extraordinary actions!
Only by using such a thunderous method could he establish the dignity of an emperor as soon as possible.
Otherwise, according to the course of history.
Qin Wangzheng had spent ten years before slowly taking over.
It was impossible for Ying Zheng to wait for so long.
Besides, Ying Zheng was also powerful, and had a reason to establish his dominance.
Lao Ai's rebellion was the biggest reason.
The strength of a mid-Zongshi realm expert, the attendant of a Celestial Realm expert, and the three thousand peak Houtian Realm factory guards were the capital to do so.
If anyone is not convinced, please step forward.
They could sweep them all together!
It was just some rumors, but the truly smart ones would soon understand Ying Zheng's deep meaning.
Even if most people didn't understand, so what?
Ying Zheng was the rightful King of Qin.
It was the sky of Great Qin!
It was only right and proper for a ruler to humiliate his subjects and for them to die.
What's wrong with killing the traitor's henchmen and implicating the whole family of the traitor's henchmen?
Who dared to stand up and oppose?
At most, they would gossip in private, thinking that Ying Zheng was too tyrannical and cruel.
However, the real old Qin people, the people of the Qin royal family, were all cheering loudly for Ying Zheng's tyrannical behavior.
After Ying Ji, all the kings of Qin were too weak and mediocre.
Great Qin did not need such a ruler!
The overbearing Ying Zheng had appeared out of nowhere, allowing the old Qin people to see the hope of the rise of Great Qin.
Their blood was boiling and they were overjoyed.
Only such a ruler could sweep across the six countries and unify Great Qin.
If they were as weak and useless as Ying Yiren, Great Qin would be finished sooner or later!
